This is lovely! I really like all the imagery in it.

And I would say voiced counts as using your word. :D

I like how you've arranged the two halves: first the sounds summoning, and then the view of the city in the morning.

I actually hadn't thought of it in that way, I guess I must have subconsciously done that? I like it though. Thank you! (And sorry for such a late reply!)

The love of the poet for his/her city really shines through.
